Founded in 1997, the East Coast Allreds are a fun loving, genealogy gathering, NC and Randolph County history learning, family exploring group based in Randolph County, NC.   Leaders Eddie Clay Allred and Linda Allred Cooper host meetings about once every 6 weeks, rotating in Greensboro, Siler City and Asheboro. 

Trips and activities are planned several times each year to visit and/or work in cemeteries or abandoned grave yards and a variety of family and historical sites as we strive to learn as much as possible about our American history and ancestors. 

Check this page often for updates about our upcoming meetings and trips. 

Everyone is invited to join in the fun!   You don't have to live in Randolph County - just have a willingness to join in the fun when you can.  We have members who live in Virginia (Alice Allred Pottmyer), Georgia (Melvin Alred) and Texas (Dennis York) who come and join in when they can. 

For more information, click on the names listed below and send us an e-mail.  We look forward to hearing from you soon!
